Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Griffithtown observes a subtle ascent to a still tropical 92.8°F (33.8°C) from July's 93.2°F (34°C) in the average high-temperature. Compared to daytime temperatures, Griffithtown's temperature drops significantly, averaging a pleasant 71.1°F (21.7°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
